803 Diamond
A Legend Reborn
The 803 Diamond might look almost as imposing as the 802 Diamond, but
thanks to its smaller footprint and more traditional cabinet design, it will t more
easily into a home environment. With three Rohacell 7” bass drivers it delivers
almost as much bass as the 802 Diamond, lling even the largest of domestic
rooms with rich, lifelike sound.
